is locked before driving your vehicle.
Failure to follow this warning may
result in serious injury or death.
ADJUSTABLE PEDALS
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
The adjustable pedals system is de-
signed to allow a greater range of
driver comfort for steering wheel tilt
and seat position. This feature allows
the brake, accelerator, and clutch
pedals (for versions/markets, where
provided) to move toward or away
from the driver to provide improved
position with the steering wheel.
The switch is located on the left side of
the steering column. Press the switch forward to move the
pedals forward (toward the front of
the vehicle).
Press the switch rearward to move the
pedals rearward (toward the driver).
The pedals can be adjusted with the
ignition OFF.
The pedals cannotbe adjusted
when the vehicle is in REVERSE or
when the Electronic Speed Control
System is on. The following mes-
sages will be displayed on vehicles
equipped with the Electronic Ve-
hicle Information System (EVIC) if
the pedals are attempted to be ad-
justed when the system is locked
out (“Adjustable Pedal Disabled —
Cruise Control Engaged” or “Ad-
justable Pedal Disabled — Vehicle
In Reverse”.

above 32 km/h.
TO VARY THE SPEED
SETTING
When the Electronic Speed Control is
set, you can increase speed by pushing
the RES (+) button. If the button is
continually pressed, the set speed will
continue to increase until the button is
released, then the new set speed will
be established.Pressing the RES (+) button once will
result in a 2 km/h increase in set
speed. Each subsequent tap of the
button results in an increase of
2 km/h.
To decrease speed while the Elec-
tronic Speed Control is set, push the
SET (-) button. If the button is con-
tinually held in the SET (-) position,
the set speed will continue to decrease
until the button is released. Release
the button when the desired speed is
reached, and the new set speed will be
established.
Pressing the SET (-) button once will
result in a 2 km/h decrease in set
speed. Each subsequent tap of the

TO ACCELERATE FOR
PASSING
Press the accelerator as you would
normally. When the pedal is released,
the vehicle will return to the set speed.
Using Electronic Speed Control
On Hills
The transmission may downshift on
hills to maintain the vehicle set speed.
NOTE:
The Electronic Speed Control sys-
tem maintains speed up and down
hills. A slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal.
On steep hills, a greater speed loss or
gain may occur so it may be prefer-
able to drive without Electronic Speed
Control.
WARNING!
Electronic Speed Control can be
dangerous where the system cannot
maintain a constant speed. Your ve-
hicle could go too fast for the condi-
tions, and you could lose control and
have an accident. Do not use Elec-
tronic Speed Control in heavy traffic
or on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered or slippery.

PARKSENSE® REAR
PARK ASSIST (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The ParkSense® Rear Park Assist
system provides visual and audible
indications of the distance between
the rear fascia and a detected obstacle
when backing up, e.g. during a park-
ing maneuver. Refer to ParkSense®
System Usage Precautions for limita-
tions of this system and recommenda-
tions.
ParkSense® will retain the last sys-
tem state (enabled or disabled) from
the last ignition cycle when the igni-
tion is changed to the ON/RUN posi-
tion.
ParkSense® can be active only when
the shift lever is in REVERSE. If
ParkSense® is enabled at this shift
lever position, the system will remainactive until the vehicle speed is in-
creased to approximately 18 km/h or
above. The system will become active
again if the vehicle speed is decreased
to speeds less than approximately
16 km/h.
PARKSENSE® SENSORS
The four ParkSense® sensors, located
in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the
area behind the vehicle that is within
the sensors’ field of view. The sensors
can detect obstacles from approxi-
mately 30 cm up to 200 cm from the
rear fascia/bumper in the horizontal
direction, depending on the location,
type and orientation of the obstacle.
PARKSENSE® WARNING
DISPLAY
The ParkSense® Warning screen will
only be displayed if Sound and Dis-
play is selected from the Customer-
Programmable Features section of the

sage for approximately five seconds.
Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)” in “Understand-
ing Your Instrument Panel” for fur-
ther information. When the shift lever
is moved to REVERSE and the system
is disabled, the EVIC will display the
“PARK ASSIST SYSTEM OFF” mes-
sage for as long as the vehicle is in
REVERSE.
SERVICE THE
PARKSENSE® REAR PARK
ASSIST SYSTEM
When the ParkSense® Rear Park As-
sist System is malfunctioning, the in-strument cluster will actuate a single
chime, once per ignition cycle, and it
will display the “CLEAN PARK AS-
SIST SENSORS” or the “SERVICE
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” message.
Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)” in “Understand-
ing Your Instrument Panel” for fur-
ther information. When the shift lever
is moved to REVERSE and the system
has detected a faulted condition, the
EVIC will display the “CLEAN PARK
ASSIST SENSORS” or the “SER-
VICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” mes-
sage for as long as the vehicle is in
REVERSE. Under this condition,
ParkSense® will not operate.
132

If “CLEAN PARK ASSIST SEN-
SORS” appears in the EVIC after
making sure the rear fascia/bumper is
free from snow, ice, mud, dirt or other
obstruction, see your authorized
dealer.
If “SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYS-
TEM” appears in the EVIC, see your
authorized dealer.
CLEANING THE
PARKSENSE® SYSTEM
Clean the ParkSense® sensors with
water, car wash soap and a soft cloth.
Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do
not scratch or poke the sensors. Oth-
erwise, you could damage the sensors.
PARKSENSE® SYSTEM
USAGE PRECAUTIONS
NOTE:
Ensure that the rear bumper isfree of snow, ice, mud, dirt and
debris to keep the ParkSense®
system operating properly.
Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could affect the
performance of ParkSense®. When you turn ParkSense® off,
the instrument cluster will dis-
play “PARK ASSIST SYSTEM
OFF.” Furthermore, once you
turn ParkSense® off, it remains
off until you turn it on again,
even if you cycle the ignition key.
When you move the shift lever to the REVERSE position and
ParkSense® is turned off, the
EVIC will display “PARK AS-
SIST SYSTEM OFF” message for
as long as the vehicle is in RE-
VERSE.
ParkSense®, when on, will re- duce the radio volume when it is
sounding a tone.
Clean the ParkSense® sensors regularly, taking care not to
scratch or damage them. The
sensors must not be covered
with ice, snow, slush, mud, dirt
or debris. Failure to do so can
result in the system not working
properly. The ParkSense® sys-
tem might not detect an obstacle
behind the fascia/bumper, or it could provide a false indication
that an obstacle is behind the
fascia/bumper.
Objects such as bicycle carriers, trailer hitches, etc., must not be
placed within 30 cm from the
rear fascia/bumper while driv-
ing the vehicle. Failure to do so
can result in the system misin-
terpreting a close object as a
sensor problem, causing the
“SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYS-
TEM” message to be displayed
in the EVIC.
On vehicles equipped with a tailgate, ParkSense® should be
disabled when the tailgate is in
the lowered or open position
and the vehicle is in REVERSE.
A lowered tailgate could provide
a false indication that an ob-
stacle is behind the vehicle.
